The majority of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Lieder date from the composer's late Viennese years. Many pieces were destined for almanacs and collections, or for his circle of friends. The texts range from sentimental verses to Enlightenment-era poems, and to national topics alluding to political events, especially the Ottoman Wars. As time went by, Mozart left the strophic songs behind him. He fashioned "galant" songs with Verschweigung K. 518 and Der Zauberer K. 472, brilliant pieces with Das Veilchen K. 476, An Chloe K. 524 and Die Alte K. 517, and practically fully-formed romantic songs with the Lied der Trennung K. 519 and Abendempfindung K. 523. Breitkopf & Hartel in Leipzig published a first edition of the songs in 1800 in the "Oeuvres complettes." Due to great demand, it was reprinted several times.
